In depth

Verdict

Sireric is none to reliable, but he is more than capable if the mood takes him, while Over Zealous has every chance of reversing Sedgefield form with the inconsistent Mr Mahdlo on 13lbs better terms. John Upson has his team in good form at present and it would be no surprise if Over Zealous returned to winning form. Carnacrack would appear to have it all to do with his Kelso conqueror D J Flippance, who gets the TEAMtalk vote to continue winning ways.
